Abstract

The authors report that bifermerane hydrochloride treatment improved emotional incontinence in patient with cerebral infarction. Before and after bifermerane hydrochloride treatment, 99mTc-HM PAO single photon emission CT (SPECT) was performed. After treatment, regional cerebral blood flows (CBF) in frontal lobe area increased selectively. These findings suggest that emotional incontinence and decreased CBF of the frontal lobe area were closely associated in this case.
